Below you will find the list of books, tv shows, and/or movies as they are mentioned in this episode! We thank you for sticking around and are so happy to have you as a listener!

A big friendly hello to all our friends who’ve decided to stop by! Thank you so much for listening to our podcast! We genuinely enjoy sitting down and recording together and we genuinely enjoy the fact that you guys want to listen to us ramble on! So thank you :)

The giveaway was pushed up a week to give others a chance to participate. The winner will be announced on March 13th! The podcast that Austin was invited to be on is called The Clipping Point (drift sessions)! There is also a companion youtube video to go with the audio! 

Please check out Becky’s Etsy account! (bobwhitehomestead) As well as Emma and Ella’s Etsy pages! Emma will be selling crocheted pieces- pallaviscrochet , and Ella will be selling artwork! - craftsbyelliegrace

This episode was the Bookclub episode! The book club book this time was Twilight by Stephenie Meyer! So if you’re weary of getting spoilers, you may want to avoid this week's episode! If you don’t care about spoilers, then please feel free to click play and join us!

Although the majority of the audio you’ll hear is the two of us speaking, there is one recording of a fellow kindred spirit who partook in the book club and sent us a recording of some of her thoughts! Thank you, Katie Parrish! We loved hearing your thoughts. We were also emailed a couple of thoughts to read out loud on the podcast by Tracy Robinson! (That’s Brooke’s mom) So thank you to you as well for your participation! Since this was such a controversial episode, there are several moments when other people who are in the room with us spoke up and we stopped talking to listen to them. So you will most likely not be able to hear them speak but you will hear our responses! We apologize if this messes with your listening fun. Please send us a message and let us know if you’re #teamedward or #teamjacob! We gotta know. 

The time stamps with the books mentioned are below, although there may only be two books mentioned throughout this whole episode…

Who are we kidding, we only talked about Twilight. A mention here and there of the sequel book New Moon, as well as some brief mentions of the movies.

Hey everyone!! As we mentioned in this episode, it feels like it’s been 52 years since we recorded!

Also, Becky started an Etsy page to have an income that's specifically for helping her Homestead to grow! The name of her Etsy will be below in the footnotes. Recording our podcast is definitely a big highlight of our week! We are so glad you’re here to join us! A few reminders below:

1. By the time you’re hearing this episode, you will no longer be able to send in an audio clip/ paragraph for us to read regarding the book club pick, Twilight by Stephanie Meyer - you’ll hear our thoughts next week!
2. By the time you’re hearing this episode, you will no longer be able to participate in the giveaway - The winner will be announced next week! (Possibly earlier on social media)
